Features

ROTAX V-TWIN ENGINE: The 976cc 82hp Rotax HD10 V-Twin is specifically tuned for serious work but also offers the industry’s top torque (69 lb-ft) and peak torque at lower RPM for optimal delivery for recreational use. The V-Twin engines are located in the rear of the Defender chassis to reduce noise, vibration and cockpit heat as well as improved access.

INTELLIGENT THROTTLE CONTROL (ITC™) WITH ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION (EFI): The EFI-fed Defender Limited packages include intelligent Throttle Control (iTC), which provides smooth throttle delivery even if the driver’s foot is bouncing in rough terrain.

PRO-TORQ TRANSMISSION: The PRO-TORQ Transmission is calibrated to meet the demands of the Defender side-by-side vehicles and includes a Quick Response System (QRS) to enhance low-speed riding, deliver smoother and more responsive power delivery and offers precise engagement. A work-specific low gear ensures optimal torque delivery for heavy loads. At low speeds, optimized ventilation improves belt durability and ensures more efficient power transfer. Electronic Drive Belt Protection monitors the CVT belt to determine its condition and alerting the driver to be in low gear. Defender side-by-side vehicles come standard with Park, Reverse, Neutral, High and extra Low. Integrated electronic hill descent control supplies smooth, predictable deceleration. The HD10 CVT’s 2020 calibration lowered the shift line by 500 rpm and also reduced the vehicle’s sound output under heavy acceleration.

DYNAMIC POWER STEERING: The DPS system is tuned for utility applications while also offering responsiveness for recreational usage. DPS improves steering feel in slow-speed working situations and in more technical terrain. It also is designed to offer less assistance at high speed and more assistance at low speed.

TRUE 4-MODE TRACTION SYSTEM WITH TURF MODE AND FRONT AUTO-LOCKING VISCO-LOK QE: The Defender side-by-side vehicle offers a 4-mode traction system with choices for varying terrain and tasks. Users, via separate front-and-rear toggle switches, can select between a 2x4 open rear differential for tight turning and turf protection, a 2x4 lockable rear for improved 2WD traction, a 4x4 open rear for more maneuverability in rugged terrain and a 4x4 locked rear for maximum traction.

THREE DRIVING MODES: The driver can select between three different driving modes on the Can-Am Defender to adapt to both personal preference and the riding conditions: ECO, Normal and Work. Normal mode has no speed or torque limitations and is optimized for recreational use with no load or a light workload. Work mode is calibrated for working with high loads in a gentle manner, offering a smooth power delivery, still with full power and torque. ECO mode, which was revised for 2020 to create even smoother operation, limits both high-range speed and torque to produce moderate driving with regulated-but-smooth acceleration.

THICKER FIREWALL: All 2020 Can-Am Defender vehicles now have a thicker firewall to produce a sound and heat barrier between the occupant and engine components.

HIGH RIGIDITY CHASSIS: The Defender is extremely capable off-road and a legitimate workhorse that uses revised Dual-Phase steel chassis with automotive-like technology and fabrication tolerances that are in line with modern pick-up trucks. The new frame, which features a new integrated steel bumper and bumper plate, offers 30% more rigidity and weighs 5-lbs. less than the previous generation. The Dual-Phase grade steel means a more rigid design for taking the strain of heavy-duty chores.

850-W MAGNETO: This package provides an extremely powerful magneto, an 850-W output, for handling high-powered lighting or other key accessories.

ARCHED DOUBLE A-ARM FRONT SUSPENSION WITH SWAY BAR AND TUBE GAS CHARGED SHOCKS. (10-IN. / 25.4 CM TRAVEL): The Defender Limited HD10 has a front, arched double A-arm suspension system designed to offer an enhanced stance, more control and improve handling by adding ride clearance when navigating muddy terrain and rugged trails. With 10-in. of travel, the ride is smooth in all situations, even when carrying heavy loads. Larger-bore shocks also enhance overall durability.

TTA REAR SUSPENSION WITH ARCHED ARMS, EXTERNAL SWAY BAR AND TWIN TUBE GAS CHARGED SHOCKS (10-IN. / 25.4 CM TRAVEL): The arched Torsional Trailing A-arms (TTA) rear suspension, which was designed specifically for a utility and recreational usage, offers a full 10-in. of travel to provide a smooth ride even in the most demanding terrain. Its architecture offers optimal comfort, ride clearance and drivability in all conditions, thanks to no camber change. The Defender vehicle’s TTA wears more bushings than some competitive units and is also larger and greaseable on both the chassis and knuckle, resulting in a more durable setup. In addition, the TTA features a wear plate between the suspension and the chassis, preventing direct friction between those two. This all translates to a more controlled wheel movement when driving, and an increased longevity. The system also includes a larger shock bore for better durability.

27-IN. MAXXIS BIGHORN 2.0 TIRES: Maxxis Bighorn 2.0 tires feature a rugged six-ply radial construction and are lightweight to cut down on unsprung weight. The tires are very capable of climbing and clawing across tough terrain and also absorb varying surfaces for a smooth ride and predictable cornering.

FOUR 220 MM DISC BRAKES WITH HYDRAULIC PISTON CALIPERS: The Defender side-by-side vehicle uses twin piston calipers with two 220 mm discs up front and two 220 mm discs with a single piston caliper at the rear for superior stopping force when pulling heavy loads.

140-W LIGHTING OUTPUT AND LED TAIL LIGHTS: For a superb wide-visibility, two 35-W reflectors on each side run at 70-W on high beam to provide more than enough candlepower for early-morning scouting trips, trail rides or late-night farm chores. LED Taillights enhance visibility in all conditions and add to the unmatched fit-and-finish

OPTIMAL WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION: The 47 / 53 weight distribution ensures a strong footing whatever the nature of the ride or the landscape.

HVAC SYSTEM: The factory-installed, integrated HVAC system keeps occupants warm even on the coldest morning and cool and comfortable on the hottest summer day. For climate control, you can select from three different modes: Heat, air conditioning and industry-exclusive automatic mode. Auto allows for temperature regulation, without manual adjustments, by operating the heater, A/C and airflow jointly modulating power output once a desired temperature is reached. A variable compressor allows more cooling capacity at idle, improves fuel efficiency and also decreases hp loss when A/C is not needed. HVAC and more perfectly sealed cabin ensure a dust-free environment to enhance air quality. Relocated air vents provide maximum cooling and heating efficiency. Eight vents (4 front, 2 lower feet and 2 front window) ensure proper airflow. The system also re-circulates air, automatically introducing fresh air, to maintain ambient air temperature and minimize humidity. Similar to automotive designs, an easy-access cabin air filter can be replaced.

FULL HARD ROOF WITH LINER AND DOME LIGHT: A durable, heavy-duty plastic roof with an integrated liner protects the occupants from elements while giving the Defender units a custom appearance and unbeatable fit-and-finish. A standard dome light helps illuminate the cab during low-light situations.

FULL DOORS WITH ELECTRIC OPENING WINDOWS: The Can-am Defender Limited HD10 features full black doors to enclose the occupants within the cab. The comfortable and spacious cabin also offers the occupants protection from the elements and, with an integrated heater, warmth in cool regions. The durable doors have modern, electronic-opening windows for added convenience.

FULL-GLASS, TILT-UP WINDSHIELD WITH WIPER AND WASHER KIT & REAR GLASS: The full, high-grade glass windshield is durable and scratch resistant. It also includes a wiper and washer kit with a 0.4-Gal. (1.9 L) reservoir for improved visibility in wet weather or muddy conditions. The windshield can also be tilted up (three positions) and outward to increase airflow to the occupants during mild conditions. The switch allowing for opening and tilting the front window was enhanced for increased reliability. This package now features a fixed rear window.

XT FRONT BUMPER: The Limited includes an XT bumper that extends out from the bumper plate. It is designed for protecting the headlights and panels for long-term durability as well as assuring vehicle protection in extreme usage conditions.

LIMITED VERSA-PRO BENCH SEAT: The Limited package includes a reinforced VERSA-PRO Bench Seat that is configured as a 40/20/40 bench seat, inspired by modern pick-up trucks. It can comfortably accommodate three adults and features “profiled” corners to improve entrance / exit of the cab as well as an ultra-sturdy Limited reinforced seat cover for improved wear resistance. The passenger seats, complete with integrated hooks on their underside, also can be flipped up to improve onboard storage. Can-Am engineers also added a foldable central console and armrest with two cup holders to allow more space in the cab

TILT STEERING: The steering wheel was specifically designed for utility applications with a larger diameter for improved handling and control. The automotive-like tilt steering wheel lets drivers adjust (up to 25 degrees) it to their driving style and ergonomic preference. It offers also an easier maneuvering while entering/exiting the vehicle.

VERSATILE, INTEGRATED CARGO BOX WITH STURDY TAILGATE: The highly durable Cargo box has a 1,000-lbs. / 454 kg (600-lbs. / 272.2 kg in California model) load capacity and has dump assist levers. It also features a versatile configuration that can create a customizable duallevel setup or completely separate compartments. Strategic features include 5-Gal. (18.9 L) pail recesses, integrated anchors on the sidewalls and several tie-down points for added convenience. To fully optimize the sizeable cargo box, consumers can divide up the box using the integrated recesses. The box allows for both 1x3 (in.) and plywood separators and accepts bed extenders for refining the bed’s overall dimensions. The cargo box is adaptable to accept 14 LinQ quick-attach accessories for further customization. Complete with cable supports and metal bars, the reinforced tailgate can withstand ordinary farm use and serve as a seat during your lunch break (max weight: 250-lbs. / 113.4 kg). For ease of usage, the tailgate can be removed in seconds without tools. A cargo box deflector rests between the front of the cargo box and the cab and prevents cargo and trail debris from leaving the cargo box.

2-IN. REAR HITCH RECEIVER: A 2-in. hitch receiver equipped all Defenders. Its standard size means a hitch can be transferred directly from a typical pick-up truck.

OPEN DASH WITH REMOVABLE TOOLBOX AND UNDER-DASH STORAGE: The open dash design features a handy water-resistant, removable 1.7-Gal. (6.3 L) toolbox, an industryexclusive, to allow users to carefully carry tools and supplies they need in an organized manner. The open dash configuration is designed to be more functional friendly with more open storage, reducing overall hood space for increased onboard, accessible storage. Perfect for stowing small essentials, the Defender models also include convenient 6-Gal. (22.8 L) under-dash storage with an enclosed pocket.

4,500-LBS. (2,041 KG) WINCH: The onboard winch is designed to handle heavy-duty loads with its 4,500-lbs. (2,041 kg) capacity and roller fairlead. A convenient button was also added to the console on the left side of the steering wheel for easy operation.

12.7-GAL. (48.1 L) OF TOTAL STORAGE: The Defender Limited HD10 has ample storage at 12.7-Gal. (48.1 L). The 5.6-Gal. (21 L) enclosed under seat storage beneath the passenger seat offers a large waterproof space for the most precious items and is easily removable for the user’s convenience. A handy water-resistant, removable 1.7-Gal. (6.3 L) toolbox is also included. It features also a dash and under dash storage area and additional storage like interior doors storage and cup holder which bring the storage capacity to 12.7-Gal. (48.1 L).
